On this episode, I am joined by Michael “Mr. ColliPark” Crooms (@realmrcollipark), super producer and DJ, and we sat down to chop it up about his career in music and the impact he’s had on the industry.
We talk about the origins of “twerk,” how his first hit, the Ying Yang Twins’ “Wait (The Whisper Song),” almost didn’t happen, discovering Soulja Boy, and how he feels about being responsible for a song played at every Black function, “The Wobble.”
